However, I have been told during my visits to Europe that I sound as though I could be from Canada, though I feel that residents of the northern United States and Canada itself would have no trouble recognizing the distinction.
I’m a friendly guy with many interests. I love learning other languages, most notably German and Irish-Gaelic, but I’ve also dabbled a bit recently with Dutch. In high school I took electives in Spanish, and in college, found it suited me to take a class in Russian. Unfortunately, with none of the above could I ever hope to impress a native speaker.
Outside my adventures in linguistic studies, I enjoy thoughtful philosophical or political discussions, going out to eat and trying new foods, and listening to all sorts of music from bluegrass to hip-hop.
I will be more than happy to offer my assistance to anyone with questions they may have about English, particularly American English. I was once told that the hardest word for a native German speaker to pronounce is “rear-view mirror”. I hope that I’ll have many people here pronouncing “rear-view mirror” just like us yanks in no time at all! And I pray that in return, you’ll pardon my atrocious German, and even more abysmal use of the “Modalpartikeln”, and perhaps offer me some constructive criticism.
I laughed my head off. Anyway I am very sure that your help will be much appreciated and that there are plenty of kind people here who will enjoy helping you too. Enjoy yourself here and feel free to ask for help if you need it.
